Click Summary, then click Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary screen. About VoiceOver VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use ipad without seeing it. VoiceOver tells you about each element on the screen as you select it. When you select an element, a black rectangle (the VoiceOver cursor) encloses it and VoiceOver speaks the name or describes the item. Touch the screen or drag your fingers to hear di erent items on the screen. When you select text, VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the item and provide instructions for you for example, double-tap to open. To interact with items on the screen, such as buttons and links, use the gestures described in Learning VoiceOver gestures on page 110. 107
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound and automatically selects and speaks the first element of the screen (typically, the item in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen is locked or unlocked. Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specified in International settings, which may be influenced by the Region Format setting (Settings > General > International > Region Format). VoiceOver is available in many languages, but not all. Setting up VoiceOver Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures you use to control ipad. Once VoiceOver is turned on, you must use VoiceOver gestures to operate ipad even to turn VoiceOver o again to resume standard operation. Note: You can t use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time. Turn VoiceOver on or o : Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver. You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or o. See Triple-click Home on page 116.

Learning VoiceOver gestures When VoiceOver is turned on, the standard touchscreen gestures have di erent e ects. These and some additional gestures let you move around the screen and control individual elements when they re selected. VoiceOver gestures include two- and three-finger gestures to tap or flick. For best results when using two- and three-finger gestures, relax and let your fingers touch the screen with some space between them. You can use standard gestures when VoiceOver is turned on, by double-tapping and holding your finger on the screen. A series of tones indicates that normal gestures are in force. They remain in e ect until you lift your finger. Then VoiceOver gestures resume. You can use di erent techniques to enter VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can enter a two-finger tap using two fingers from one hand, or one finger from each hand. You can also use your thumbs. Many find the split-tap gesture especially e ective: instead of selecting an item and double-tapping, you can touch and hold an item with one finger, then tap the screen with another finger. Try di erent techniques to discover which works best for you. If your gestures don t work, try quicker movements, especially for double-tapping and flicking gestures. To flick, try quickly brushing the screen with your finger or fingers. When VoiceOver is turned on, the VoiceOver Practice button appears, which gives you a chance to practice VoiceOver gestures before proceeding. Practice gestures: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap VoiceOver Practice. When you finish practicing, tap Done. If you don t see the VoiceOver Practice button, make sure VoiceOver is turned on. Here s a summary of key VoiceOver gestures: Navigate and read Tap: Speak item.

Touch an item with one finger, tap the screen with another finger ( split-tapping ): Activate the item. Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture. The double-tap and hold gesture tells ipad to interpret the subsequent gesture as standard. For example, you can double-tap and hold, then without lifting your finger, drag your finger to slide a switch. Two-finger double-tap: Play or pause in Music, Videos, YouTube, Voice Memos, or Photos. Take a photo (Camera). Start or pause recording in Camera or Voice Memos. Start or stop the stopwatch. Two-finger double-tap and hold: Open the element labeler. Two-finger triple-tap: Open the Item Chooser. Three-finger double-tap: Mute or unmute VoiceOver. Three-finger triple-tap: Turn the screen curtain on or o. Using the VoiceOver rotor control The rotor control is a virtual dial that you can use to change the results of up and down flick gestures when VoiceOver is turned on. Operate the rotor: Rotate two fingers on the ipad screen around a point between them. Change the options included in the rotor: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Rotor and select the options you want to be available using the rotor. The e ect of the rotor depends on what you re doing.

Entering and editing text with VoiceOver When you select a text field with VoiceOver, you can use the onscreen keyboard or an external keyboard connected to ipad to enter text. You can use the editing features of ipad to cut, copy, or paste in the text field. There are two ways to enter text in VoiceOver standard typing and touch typing. With standard typing, you select a key, then double-tap the screen to enter the character. With touch typing, you touch to select a key and the character is entered automatically when you lift your finger. Touch typing can be quicker, but may require more practice than standard typing. VoiceOver also lets you use the editing features of ipad to cut, copy, or paste in a text field. Enter text: Select an editable text field, double-tap to display the insertion point and the onscreen keyboard, and type characters. Standard typing: Select a key on the keyboard by flicking left or right, then double-tap to enter the character. Or move you finger around the keyboard to select a key and, while continuing to touch the key with one finger, tap the screen with another finger. VoiceOver speaks the key when it s selected, and again when the character is entered. Touch typing: Touch a key on the keyboard to select it, then lift your finger to enter the character. If you touch the wrong key, move your finger on the keyboard until you select the key you want. VoiceOver speaks the character for each key as you touch it, but doesn t enter a character until you lift your finger. Note: Touch typing works only for the keys that enter text. Use standard typing for other keys such as Shift, Delete, and Return. Move the insertion point: Flick up or down to move the insertion point forward or backward in the text. Use the rotor to choose whether you want to move the insertion point by character, by word, or by line. VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and speaks the character, word, or line that the insertion point moves across. When moving forward by words, the insertion point is placed at the end of each word, before the space or punctuation that follows. When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the end of the preceding word, before the space or punctuation that follows it. To move the insertion point past the punctuation at the end of a word or sentence, use the rotor to switch back to character mode. When moving the insertion point by line, VoiceOver speaks each line as you move across it. When moving forward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the next line (except when you reach the last line of a paragraph, when the insertion point is moved to the end of the line just spoken). When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the line that s spoken. Choose standard or touch typing With VoiceOver turned on and a key selected on the keyboard, use the rotor to select Typing Mode, then flick up or down. Delete a character Select, then double-tap or split-tap. You must do this even when touch typing. To delete multiple characters, touch and hold the Delete key, then tap the screen with another finger once for each character you want to delete. VoiceOver speaks the character as it s deleted. If Use Pitch Change is turned on, VoiceOver speaks deleted characters in a lower pitch. Select text Cut, copy, or paste Set the rotor to Edit, flick up or down to choose Select or Select All, then double-tap. If you chose Select, the word closest to the insertion point is selected when you double-tap. If you chose Select All, the entire text is selected. Pinch apart or together to increase or decrease the selection. Make sure the rotor is set to edit. With text selected, flick up or down to choose Cut, Copy, or Paste, then double-tap.
